The Throw-Down is the signature event of ATD Piedmont. To celebrate the successes of 2016, ATD provides a buffet dinner meal with beer & wine, networking with other talent development professionals in the Triad, and of course, the Throw-down itself! In it, three professionals will showcase their very best 15-minute presentation in a competition to be the 2016 Throw-Down Champion!
Meet this year's contenders:

#2: Travis Cook and Connie Chesner, Armored Self-Defense
Teamwork is tough, people are tougher. Step outside expected paradigms and experience the powerful release targeted self defense training provides, while feeling first hand the immediate sense of bonding and trust which emerge through our unique approach. There's simply no way to prepare you for the rush of endorphins, sense of achievement, and depth of shared experience that this system instills. www.armoredselfdefense.com
#3: Andrew McMillan, The Stocked Pot
Nothing pulls a team together better than fun in the kitchen–add a fabulous meal as a reward and you’ve got a winning event!
If you are looking for a professional, yet, fun way to bring team members together, this is it! Andrew and his wife Laurie are bringing the fun of the Stocked Pot Culinary Team-Building experiences to this year's throw-down.
